Why do HA's need SMG access?

I don't even mind.

Let the NC have the Cyclone.

Factions are supposed to have different advantages. Everyone who cries for nerfs is a bloody dolt. Don't ask for nerfs, ask for other buffs to something else to create more and better diversity.

Why? Why not?
SMGs, like pistols, are available to all non-MAX classes. I'm glad that there is at least ONE class of primaries that can be used on every class. Yes, I know you have a problem with this, but I have yet to see you present a rational argument against this.

"Hurgle gurgle I got killed by a heavy!!!"

But but but... look at this chart I made about how the other faction's equivalent of my gun has 5% more kills per hour on average! It NEEDS to be nerfed!

Are you really using the comment on the first page that was exactly like this?

Both of you guys are de-railing this thread, and making fun of asking a legitimate balance question.

The answer to this question is simple: because people like it this way.
Don't be the next Mustarde and unintentionally invent a "rocket primary" movement.

No they're asking for you to give a reason as to why it shouldn't since they already provided you with why it is. So why doesn't it fit with the class and why is it problematic? Why is it a bad mixture? You're screaming for change, we're entitled to ask why.

Should I just make fun of you then?

Prolly easier...

We're mocking the "balance question" because that's the only reasonable response to such an absurd request.

I never even SEE an SMG HA besides the occasional Cyclone HA.

So how exactly is this a problem whatsoever??

Oh right, it isn't.

Seeing as you haven't presented much in the way of an argument, this thread didn't have rails to begin with.

Can you tell me why, other than "it doesn't make sense" and ".75 is problematic" and "take advantages and combine."

You made the thread, so you need to make the argument; give us the facts. You shouldn't make us come up with all your information for you.

This.

LMGs need their COF increased, accuracy reduced. Only able to use LMGs (not even pistols). And their shields only protect against the explosion damage more than 1m away from the impact point. Not direct or near direct hits, and not small arms fire of any kind.

This way the medic will be the goto zerging class. A class that can aoe heal the rest of the zerg and revive it. Oh and they can use SMGs too.

You think forumside is crying about heavies now? Wait till the Medics take the Heavy spot.

Medics really are oh so much worse...

although, if the "meta" ever shifts that way, the bright side is that there'll be a lot less cries for VS nerfs and instead all the ire will be directed at TR or NC...(honestly not even sure who has the better AR selection... I do love my SABR though... that thing is beast)

I agree with this. Medics actually are a lot stronger than people realize.

I knew this was familiar.

IMO, the TR has the best selection of AR's over all. They have very few bad choices, and even those look good next to their VS counter-parts.

Yup, that's why I said exactly that

His last thread failed, so he thought to try again.

It didn't fail.

It got people thinking.

NC has the Reaper (that is the one innit?) though which is arguably potentially the best AR in the game...

It's like lets compare NC and VS LMG's

Everyone complains about the Orion and thus VS LMG's more than anything, however, the NC has a much better selection overall (inarguably however, their starter LMG is terrible as a starter LMG which is the NC's biggest LMG issue. TR have a better starter but their overall selection is just barely not as good... missing the nice, and niche, 200 dmg tier SAW. Also Anchor is arguably better than anything in TR's selection)

No you got people to think they finally got through to you in making an argument. I guess I was wrong.

Not really....

unless they were thinking "WTF is wrong with the OP??"

"Nerf Calls - Openly calling for "Nerfs" (blanket reductions to abilities) is not allowed. If you feel something is overpowered or needs to be toned back, post your constructive comments and explanations."

From the forum guidelines. I underlined the important area for you. You are calling for a nerf, the burden is on you, not on us.

He's a "Game Developer" Sin, don't question him...

He just knows what is best
